"But whatever one chooses to do on the practical
level as a writer, when it comes to the conceptual level, there is no other way around- one must assume both a particular and a universal point of view, at least to be part of literature. That is, one must work to reach the general, even while starting from an individual or from a specific point of view. This
is true for straight writers. But it is true as
well for minority writers."
